and then you have netherlands with 80%+ of the pop vaccinated hitting record number of cases.

I'm sorry but the narrative "vaccine prevents spread" has been falling apart for the past 6 months and is now completely disproved by real world data. Not a single country has been successful at preventing the spread with vaccination. And it shows at every level : from cities (singapore) to small islands (cayman islands) to states.

The vaccine isn't a superman cape or body condom. It doesn't prevent you from getting covid if you're exposed to it. You're honestly an idiot if you believe it prevents you from getting covid.

The real benefit of the vaccine is that it lessen the effects if you are infected. The benefit of that is that hospitals don't fill up. People who have other issues won't be locked out. Fewer people will die.

Get vaccinated.
